* The libjpeg-turbo API/ABI, which is used as the main libjpeg library, has been updated to match the latest jpeg8 API/ABI. Backward compatible libjpeg library is now shipped in libjpeg-turbo-compat and libjpeg-turbo-compat-devel packages.

Scope

All packages which require libjpeg.so need to be rebuilt against new library. jpeg8 API is mostly compatible with the current jpeg6 API so there shouln't be any issues with porting. jpeg6->jpeg8 transition will have four steps:

1. Creation of the libjpeg-turbo-compat library which will contain current jpeg6 library

2. libjpeg-turbo and libjpeg-turbo-devel will be built with jpeg8 API/ABI

3. Rebuild of all dependent pkgs

How To Test

1. All packages which depends on libjpeg-turbo should be rebuilt successfully
